Dostoevsky in Love: An Intimate Life by Alex Christofi tells the story of the great Russian novelist’s life by brilliantly intertwining it with his own words, taken from where Dostoevsky’s fiction is drawn from his own lived experience. And it was quite some life: amongst other ups and downs, Dostoevsky was nearly executed and spent four years in a Siberian labour camp.
